AS I am new I am not sure this the right place to post this, but here it goes. With all the political views and discussions about TEA Party People vs Republicans vs Democrats. I would like to know what would the perfect President look and act Like if he or she existed?

Like me, of course. That'd be a perfect representation of my political and social beliefs.

That's the WHOLE POINT, there is NO such thing as a perfect President.
But give me some time, maybe I can come what with something.

Great Question. It will be a bit of a lengthy answer and I am running out the door right now but I will give my opinion later on.

Really, the president that gave amnesty to the largest group of illegal immigrants in history, that raised taxes on the middle class, that created the largest deficit in history at that time, that presided over high unemployment, that sponsored illegal activities, armed the Taliban, etc.?

The right President would represent all American voters, not just his party and donors. He or she would be able to see the big picture, and speak the truth even when it is not popular.

Is it even possible to represent all American Voters? We have become so Diverse. I wonder is Unify rather than divide a better approach?

Doesn't 'popular' mean that something would appeal to the majority?

And if a truth is not popular, then it can't represent the majority of American voters.

So, there a contradiction in there.

We've got a president now that claims to represent what we need rather than what we want, and he definitely does not represent me.
